1.0 REPORT PURPOSE

Tay Valley Township has completed a 5-year review of its Official Plan with the adoption of Amendment No. 4 to its Official Plan on September 23, 2014. On August 26, 2015 a Technical Report was presented to Economic Development Committee as the final step in the County review process – the approval of the Amendment. Economic Development Committee adopted the Report’s recommendation to approve Amendment No. 4 with modifications. County Council adopted the Committee recommendation on September 9th and there were no appeals to Council’s decision so Amendment No. 4 is now in full force and effect.

There was a second recommendation in the August 15th Technical Report to defer consideration of the Source Water Protection policy in Amendment No. 4 and to defer the designation of lands to be subject to source water protection policy as Amendment No. 3 to the County of Lanark Sustainable Communities Official Plan (SCOP) was pending approval with the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing.

On October 16, 2015, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MMAH) approved Amendment No. 3 to the SCOP with modifications and approved Schedule B Source Water Protection that maps the lands to which the policies apply. Appendix 1 to this Report is Section 5.5.8 Surface and Ground Water Protection and Section 5.5.9 Municipal Source Water Protection and Enhancement as modified by MMAH, and also, Schedule B Source Water Protection that was not modified.

The purpose of this Report is to complete the approval of Amendment No. 4 to the Tay Valley Official Plan with respect to its source water protection policies and the application of these policies to land in the Township.

2.0 SOURCE WATER PROTECTION POLICIES IN AMENDMENT NO. 4

Section 2.23.2 Source Water Protection of Amendment No. 4 to the Official Plan of Tay Valley Township reads as follows:

“With the adoption of the Mississippi Rideau Source Water Protection Plan by the province, all of the tributaries and the part of the Tay River leading to the Town of Perth have been designated as Source Water Protection Area. The area closest to the Town of Perth has been designated as Intake Zones 8 and 9 and require higher levels of protection for the drinking water source for the Town of Perth. The Zoning By-law shall set out the limitations for permitted uses, servicing requirements and any requirements for Risk Management Plans.”

ATTACHMENT "A"

AGENDA ITEM #9i)


2

Amendment No. 3 to the SCOP as modified requires all lower-tier municipalities to amend their Official Plans to identify Intake Protection Zones identified by the Source Water Protection Plan and to amend the policies of their Official Plan to comply with the Source Water Protection Plan.

Therefore, it is necessary to modify Section 2.23.2 Source Water Protection by removing the current wording. It should be noted that the land use policies for Intake Protection Zones (IPZ) 8 and 9 are identical. Therefore the same policies are applicable to both IPZ’s shown on Schedule B to the Tay Valley Official Plan.

Also in order to fully implement the approved Source Protection Plan, modifications to other sections of the Tay Valley Official Plan are appropriate.

Specifically:

1. Section 3.7 Hamlet, is amended to add a policy requiring that during the consideration of any expansion of a settlement area boundary, the Township will ensure that source water intake areas are protected from incompatible development.

2. A new Section 5.11 Source Water Protection is added that requires Council to appoint a Risk Management Official to implement the Planning Act and Ontario Building Code responsibilities under the Clean Water Act.

Schedule B Environmentally Sensitive Land to Amendment No. 4 designates land in Tay Valley subject to the source water protection policies by designating land either Source Water Intake Protection – Zone Scored 8 or Source Water Intake Protection – Zone Scored 9. Appendix 2 is Schedule B to the Tay Valley Official Plan.

Schedule B has been reviewed against Schedule J, Perth Intake Protection Zone of the approved Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan (Appendix 3 to this Report) and Schedule B to the SCOP. It has been confirmed that the boundaries of lands subject to source water protection policy in Tay Valley’s Official Plan Schedule B are identical across the three documents. Therefore, no modification to Schedule B Environmentally Sensitive Land in Amendment No. 4 to the Tay Valley Official Plan is necessary.

3.0 PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT 2014 (PPS) CONSIDERATIONS

The recommended modifications to Section 2.23.2 will ensure that the policies in the Tay Valley Official Plan are consistent with Sections 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 of the PPS 2014 which require municipalities to protect the quality and quantity of water including implementation of source water protection measures.

ATTACHMENT "A"

AGENDA ITEM #9i)


3

In consultation with Tay Valley staff, modifications were drafted to Section 2.23.2 and other relevant sections of the Official Plan to ensure OPA No. 4 is consistent with the PPS 2014.

The proposed modifications were reviewed and accepted by Tay Valley Council on December 8, 2015.

4.0 LOCAL OFFICIAL PLAN CONSIDERATIONS

Approval of the recommended modifications to Official Plan Amendment No. 4 to the Tay Valley Official Plan will result in the Tay Valley Official Plan being fully consistent with the current Provincial Policy Statement 2014 and with the County of Lanark Sustainable Communities Official Plan.

5.0 CONCLUSION

The Official Plan Review Team is satisfied that Official Plan Amendment No. 4, as modified by the recommended modifications, will be consistent with the PPS 2014, conforms to the SCOP and will implement the approved Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan.

6.0 RECOMMENDATION

In consideration of the issues of Provincial Policy Statement 2014 consistency and Lanark County Sustainable Community Official Plan conformity, and implementation of the approved Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan, the Official Plan Review Team recommends approval of Section 2.23.2 Source Water Protection in Amendment No. 4 to the Tay Valley Official Plan subject to the following modifications;

1. Section 2.23.2 Source Water Protection is deleted and replaced with the following;

“The Clean Water Act, 2006, was enacted to ensure the protection of drinking water sources and requires the development and implementation of local Source Protection Plans across Ontario. The Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan (SPP) came into effect on January 1, 2015 and includes policies to protect drinking water sources that are located within Tay Valley Township. The Clean Water Act required that the focus be on the protection of shared, municipal drinking water sources, namely the Tay River that supplies drinking water to the Town of Perth. However, the Source Protection Plan also includes other vulnerable areas and associated policies that serve to protect the groundwater aquifer that supplies Tay Valley Township’s residents with private well water.

ATTACHMENT "A"

AGENDA ITEM #9i)


4

The vulnerable areas within the boundaries of Tay Valley Township are:

• Perth Intake Protection Zone (IPZ) (Schedule B to the SPP) – the area upstream of the intake at the Perth water treatment plant on the Tay River where land use activities have the potential to affect the quality of water at the intake.

• Highly Vulnerable Aquifer (HVA) (almost the entire Township is designated HVA) – an aquifer that is vulnerable to surface contaminants due to overlying soils that are thin or absent and bedrock that is fractured.

• Significant Groundwater Recharge Area (SGRA) (Refer to the SPP) – an area where an aquifer is replenished through the infiltration of rainfall and snowmelt (because of gravel deposits or other soil features).

The following policies are consistent with the Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan in order to protect the Town of Perth’s source of drinking water as well as to protect the portion of the Perth IPZ that lies within Tay Valley Township as well as the significant groundwater recharge areas and highly vulnerable aquifers. 1. All decisions of Township Council, including decisions on Planning Act applications, shall

conform to the Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan.

2. Lands shown as Intake Protection Zone on Schedule B are areas where Planning Act and Building Code Act applications shall require a clearance notice from the Risk Management Official. This is to ensure activities prohibited under Section 57 of the Clean Water Act and activities requiring a Risk Management Plan under Section 58 of the Clean Water Act (to reduce risks to drinking water sources) do not proceed until these requirements have been met. An application may proceed without a notice if the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the planning authority or the building official that a designated drinking water threat activity will not be engaged in. The Source Protection Activity Checklist can be used for this purpose.

3. Notwithstanding the policies and land use designations in the Official Plan to the contrary, land uses identified in the approved Source Protection Plan as being specifically prohibited, shall not be permitted.

4. The Zoning By-law shall set out the prohibitions for permitted uses, servicing requirements, etc., where the Source Protection Plan requires Planning Act decisions to conform and may set out other prohibitions as Council deems appropriate.

5. By January 1, 2016, Council shall initiate an education and outreach program targeted at residents within the IPZ to raise awareness about drinking water sources and good stewardship practices to protect them. Once established, this education program shall be ongoing with materials being disseminated periodically as deemed appropriate by the Township.

ATTACHMENT "A"

AGENDA ITEM #9i)

6. As resources permit, Council may implement the non-legally binding policies described in the Source Protection Plan. These policies recommend the development of a Road Salt Management Plan and the promotion of Smart About Salt within the HVA, installing Drinking Water Protection Zone signs along roads and waterways within the IPZ, collaborating with the Source Protection Authority on an education program targeted at businesses that transport potential contaminants through the IPZ and updating the Emergency Response Plan with information about the IPZ.

7. By February 1st of each year, Council shall provide the Source Protection Authorities with a summary of implementation activities for the previous calendar year related to the legally binding policies where the Township is responsible for implementation. As resources permit, Council may bring a summary related to implementation of non-legally binding policies.

8. The use of best management practices, such as low impact development, will be encouraged for all developments.”

2. Section 3.7 Hamlet is amended by adding the following after Section 3.7.5 and existing Section 3.7.6 Special Exception Areas is renumbered Section 3.7.7;

“3.7.6 Hamlet Expansion During the consideration of any expansion to a settlement area boundary within the Township, the Township will ensure that Intake Protection Zone Scored 8 and Source Water Intake Protection Zone Scored 9 are protected from incompatible development.”

3. Section 5 Implementation and Administration is amended by adding the following after Section 5.10 THE MUNICIPAL ACT;

“5.11 SOURCE WATER PROTECTION Council shall appoint a Risk Management Official or maintain an enforcement transfer agreement with another body which has an appointed Risk Management Official (such as the Conservation Authority or Health Unit). A Risk Management Official is required to enforce the Source Protection Plan policies that invoke Part IV of the Clean Water Act. These policies either prohibit activities under Section 57 or require a Risk Management Plan (to reduce risks to drinking water sources) under Section 58.”

4. Schedule B Environmentally Sensitive Land that designates lands as Source Water Intake

Protection – Zone Scored 8 and Source Water Protection Area - Zone Scored 9 is approved.

Page 1 of 4

5.5.8 Surface and Ground Water Protection and Enhancement

Surface and Ground Water Protection and Enhancement Areas in the County have been identified as Highly Vulnerable Aquifers (HVAs) and Significant Groundwater Recharge Areas (SGRAs) in the Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan (SPP). Where applicable, local Official Plans shall identify HVAs and SGRAs and refer the reader to the Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan for information about these areas. Within HVAs and SGRAs, applications for development may require additional studies or reports to assess the impacts of the proposal, or demonstration of how best management practices will be used to reduce the impact of the development, on the quality and quantity of groundwater. In HVAs, groundwater is vulnerable to surface contaminants; therefore the County will work with the Source Protection Authority to ensure the proper consideration of the HVA when reviewing development applications. HVAs extend across the majority of the County. In SGRAs, groundwater is vulnerable to depletion; therefore the County will work with the Source Protection Authority to ensure the proper consideration of the SGRA when reviewing development applications. SGRAs are identified on Schedule B.

5.5.9 Municipal Source Water Protection and Enhancement

The Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan (SPP) was approved on August 27, 2014 and came into effect on January 1, 2015.

The following policies apply:

1. All decisions of County Council, including decisions on matters related to Planning Act applications, shall conform to the SPP.

2. Municipal official plans shall identify areas where all Planning Act applications shall require a notice from the Risk Management Official in accordance with Section 59 of the Clean Water Act, 2006 prior to submission

3. Notwithstanding the policies and land use designations of this Plan to the contrary, land uses identified in the SPP as being prohibited shall not be permitted.

4. Within one year of the SPP taking effect, County Council shall initiate an education and outreach program in accordance with the policies of the SPP.

5. To protect sources of municipal drinking water, stormwater management facilities and other types of sewage works shall not be permitted in WHPA-A and IPZ Scored – 10 where these would be significant threats. This includes the discharge outlets for sewage treatment plants, industrial sewage, combined sewers, and sewage bypasses, as well as the storage of sewage. Stormwater

management facilities may be permitted in WHPA-A where exempt as per the Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan. The areas where these facilities would be significant threats in WHPA-A and IPZ Scored - 10 are identified on Schedule B and should be identified in Municipal Official Plans where applicable.

6. As resources permit, and in accordance with the requirements of the SPP, County Council may undertake the following actions to comply with applicable non-legally binding policies of the SPP:

a. Where the County applies road salt within an area identified as a Highly Vulnerable Aquifer in the SPP, prepare and implement a Road Salt Management Plan in accordance with Environment Canada’s Code of Practice for the Environmental Management of Road Salts;

b. Undertake initiatives such as a municipal staff training program to encourage smart salt practices for municipally owned parking lots, sidewalks and other public facilities;

c. In collaboration with the Source Protection Authorities, promote the Smart About Salt program to private contractors and encourage them to become Smart About Salt certified;

d. In collaboration with the Source Protection Authorities, promote the Smart About Salt program to managers of private facilities and encourage them to certify their sites in the program and use certified contractors;

e. Purchase, install, and maintain signs along roads and waterways in accordance with the SPP, to identify the locations of Wellhead Protection Areas and Intake Protection Zones;

f. In collaboration with the Source Protection Authorities, initiate an education and outreach program targeted at businesses that transport potential drinking water contaminants in vulnerable areas;

g. Ensure that first responders have information about the Wellhead Protection Areas and Intake Protection Zones (which will be marked by road and waterway signs);

7. By February 1 of each year, County Council shall provide the Source Protection Authorities with a summary of implementation activities for the previous calendar year related to the legally binding policies where the County is responsible for implementation. As resources permit, County Council may also provide a summary related to implementation of non-legally binding policies.

b. To amend the policies of the plan to comply with SPP by the compliance date set out in the SPP.
